Eager to help you get your team onboard Buffer!

Hi there,

So grateful to have you giving Buffer for Business a whirl! Having a team of people helping with your social media strategy can be a crucial asset to achieve your social media goals. Adding Team Members to your Buffer for Business account is a great way to harness the power of your team to find content to share on your social network while preventing over-sharing. On Buffer for Business, you’re able to add team members either as Contributors or Managers.

Contributors are able to suggest new content, which you can then edit if needed, before approving it to be added to the queue. Managers are able to post directly to the queue, as well as helping you with approvals and managing the schedule saving you a ton of time in the process.

Keen to share some resources with you in the hopes you’ll find them helpful!

My best tip for sharing more content on social media

Hi there,

One thing we’ve discovered in our social media research is that the more you share, the more you growmore clicks, more followers, more engagement, more everything!

And how awesome would it be to share more to social media in the same amount of time you share now? Our customers have been really incredible to help us develop something that might help here: The Buffer browser extension!

Grab the Extension here

Whenever you’re on a page you want to share, click the Buffer icon at the top of your browser. From there, you can modify the post and choose which profiles to share it with. Fancy checking out this 3 minute video?

I’d love to help with any of the setup here to make it easier for you. Hit reply to this email with any questions, and my teammates and I will leap to action!

I have a few spots left on the Buffer webinar starting in 30 minutes…

Hi there!

I’ll be starting the Introduction to Buffer for Business webinar in 30 minutes. I have a few spots left and I’d love for you to be there. There’ll be a 25-30 minute demo followed by plenty of time for questions and answers. Here’s a quick run down of the topics I’ll be covering today:

Create your own powerful content inbox

Hi there!

Looking for a way to add great content from great publishers, quickly, easily and efficiently? Look no further! The Content Inbox feature within Buffer allows you to share links directly from your favorite sites, from right inside your Buffer dashboard.

We’ll pull in the latest stories from whichever sites you choose, and you can decide which links to add to your queue and share with your followers. We’ve heard from some of our amazing customers that it’s been helpful to add their own company blog, allowing them to quickly and easily share their latest news and stories.

And if you’re looking for inspiration and ideas, why not check out our Top 100 Blogs to Curate for Social Media Power Users!

Ready to add your first feed? Follow these steps to get started:

1. Select the profile you’d like to add a feed to, from the left hand side
2. Click the ‘Content’ tab and then ‘Content Inbox’
3. Type in the name or URL of the website you’d like to add and then click ‘Add Feed’
4. Buffer will then get to work pulling some of the most recent articles from the website. When you see something you’d like to add to your queue, just click Add’ to the right of it.

Phew! Quite a bit of information there. Would love to know if I can answer any questions for you about the Content Inbox, or anything else?

Best, Danny

How Business Insider does social media

I can’t wait to get going on things this week (we’ve got some fun Buffer improvements in the pipeline). But first, I wanted to kick off the week with a quick email to you. 🙂

I want to share the stories of 5 amazing people and how they share to social media.

As you’ll see, each of these 5 folks have come up with some really awesome solutions and strategies for sharing to social media with Buffer. I’d be thrilled if you might come away with any tips for yourself! 🙂

* Meet Paul from Business Insider, who went from 200,000 Facebook fans to 1 million (a 500% increase!!).
* Meet Jessica and David from the Marketeering Group, who have some amazingly slick automation processes to share to the 397 social media profiles they serve.
* Meet Andrew from the Seattle Times, who grew social traffic to the site by 150% and knew exactly where the traffic came from.

I’d love for there to be some useful tips in these stories that might help you and your team achieve great things on social media!
